Brief summary

This is a single-arm feasibility study that is recruiting 40 patients with histologically-proven localized prostate cancer and MRI-defined lesion(s). Participants in this study will get MR-guided radiotherapy boost to MRI visible tumour before or after whole gland radiation. Participants will be followed-up as per standard of care schedule up to 5 years post-treatment.

Interventions

RADIATIONMR-guided Radiotherapy Boost

IMRT/VMAT prostate whole gland SBRT to 30 Gy in 5 fractions. MRL focal boost of 15 Gy in 1 fraction will be delivered either before or after whole gland SBRT.
